We study the motion of active patchy colloids in an optical trap using experiments, theory and numerical simulations. To achieve isotropic and harmonic confinement, we prototype microparticles with a nearly uniform refractive index and…
Starting from the stochastic thermodynamics description of two coupled underdamped Brownian particles, we showcase and compare three different coarse-graining schemes leading to an effective thermodynamic description for the first of the…
We explain the findings by Di Leonardo et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 6054 (2000)] that the effective temperature of a Lennard-Jones glass depends only on the final value of the density in the volume and/or temperature jump that produces the…
A densely packed granular system is an example of an out-of-equilibrium system in the jammed state. It has been a longstanding problem to determine whether this class of systems can be described by concepts arising from equilibrium…
We study the rotational diffusion of aging Laponite suspensions for a wide range of concentrations using depolarized dynamic light scattering. The measured orientational correlation functions undergo an ergodic to non-ergodic transition…
In this study, we investigate the behavior of inertial active Brownian particles in a $d$-dimensional harmonic trap in the presence of translational diffusion. While the solution of the Fokker-Planck equation is generally challenging, it…
Thermal fluctuations constantly and evenly excite all vibrational modes in an equilibrium crystal. As the temperature rises, these fluctuations promote the formation of defects and eventually melting. In active solids, the self-propulsion…
The Brownian motion of a particle hotter than its environment is an iconic out-of-equilibrium system. Its study provides valuable insights into nanoscale thermal effects. Notably, it supplies an excellent diagnosis of thermal effects in…
The dynamics within active fluids, driven by internal activity of the self-propelled particles, is a subject of intense study in non-equilibrium physics. These systems have been explored using simulations, where the motion of a passive…
An effective approach to isolation of sub-micro sized particles is desired to separate cancer and healthy cells or in therapy of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. However, since bioparticles span a large size range comprising several…
We discuss the nonlinear rheology of dense colloidal dispersions at the glass transition. A first principles approach starting with interacting Brownian particles in given arbitrary homogeneous (incompressible) flow neglecting hydrodynamic…
In active microrheology the mechanical properties of a material are tested by adding probe particles which are pulled by an external force. In case of supercooled liquids, strong forcing leads to a thinning of the host material which…
A system of N Brownian particles suspended in a nonuniform heat bath is treated as a thermodynamic system whith internal degrees of freedom, in this case their velocities and coordinates. Applying the scheme of non-equilibrium…
Colloidal matter undergoing Brownian motion serves as a model system to study various physical phenomena. Understanding the effect of external perturbation on the assembly and dynamics of Brownian colloids has emerged as a relevant research…
We have developed novel instrumentation for making Lagrangian measurements of temperature in diverse fluid flows. A small neutrally buoyant capsule is equipped with on-board electronics which measure temperature and transmit the data via a…
Within the framework of mode-coupling theory, we present a simple model for describing dense assemblies of active (self-propelled) spherical colloidal particles. For isotropic suspensions, we demonstrate that the glass transition is shifted…
The pattern and profile of a dried colloidal deposit formed after evaporation of a sessile water droplet containing polystyrene particles on a non-uniformly heated glass are investigated experimentally. In particular, the effects of…
In this study, we investigate the behavior of free inertial Active Brownian Particles (ABP) in the presence of thermal noise. While finding a closed-form solution for the joint distribution of positions, orientations, and velocities using…
We study stochastic thermodynamics of a Brownian particle which is subjected to a temperature gradient and is confined by an external potential. We first formulate an over-damped Ito-Langevin theory in terms of local temperature, friction…
We introduce the idea of {\it collisional models} for Brownian particles, in which a particle is sequentially placed in contact with distinct thermal environments and external forces. Thermodynamic properties are exactly obtained,…
